It turns out the crash was tied to a specific animation when evolving your Nascent Indrik into the Onyx Indrik. Now when you evolve your Indrik using the Onyx Berries, you will see a Dawnwood Indrik leap from the portal during the evolution animation. This is just a visual side effect from the hotfix we applied, and you will still be able to mount the proper looking Onyx Indrik post-evolution. This will be fully fixed when Update 24 goes live.

Thanks @ZOS_GinaBruno - but what about the crashes in e.g. Vulkhel Guard which are unrelated to evolving a Nascent Indrik?
For clarity, the animation was apparently causing both the person evolving their indrik and the people around them to crash...
I have never heard of that one berry Indrik bug..

My game crashed multiple times on both servers but it has nothing to do with the Onyx or Nascent Indrik. I don't even want the Onyx Indrik. It is, however, connected to proximity to the Impresario.

I think the crashes there are indeed related.
Remember... Vulkhel Guard is where an event merchant is located.
Many people will be summoning their Indrik... Don't forget, that the animation can be seen by anyone in the vicinity, not just the owner.
This leads me to believe that the reason crashes were so prevalent in Vulkhel Guard is due to the fact you're likely in close proximity to *someone* summoning their Indrik. It's day one so people will be summoning every few minutes, likely more often.
Because your system still has to run the summoning even if it's not yours... I think simply seeing it would have been enough to crash your game.

Thanks for clarifying that. Because it crashed while the daily login reward screen was still up I had no idea what was going on around me. I wondered if it was a separate issue as some were posting earlier about it happening when a dragon was flying overhead. It sounds like they were actually suffering from the animation issue with the overhead dragon merely being coincidental.
